Since when does Collive promote alcohol? Nothing wrong with a lichayim especially on purim. Why is Collive promoteinghaving a “kuch” and a discussion about the different types of drinks.

Are you related to gershon avtzov?

First put out a few bottles of exquisite Rashi wine. A fine,red,French wine.

Then later serve shots of the delightful Eastern European Smirnoff.

It never fails.

The Rambam specifies the mitzvah is to drink wine until you fall asleep. Some hypothesize that wine is specified because of the role it played in the Purim story and miracle.
